🧟 Meet Zombie Blossom!

Blossom always took her job as a door stop seriously... perhaps a little too seriously!

After years of being squashed by closing doors, poor Blossom has picked up a few battle scars. One eye is hanging out, her stuffing has escaped, and her intestines seem determined to follow—but don't worry... she's an opossum. Playing dead is all part of the act!

Fortunately, everything tucks neatly back inside, and she's soon ready to stop another door.

Made using beautiful African Flower motifs, Zombie Blossom is both practical and hilarious. Whether you're decorating for Halloween, looking for the perfect handmade gift for a horror fan, or simply enjoy crochet projects with a wicked sense of humour, she's guaranteed to get people talking—and laughing!
